turn back the pages of time, take a step through the sands of time
the time machine is in our ship, it seems to be functioning
quantum flux lit, compatible, awaiting coordination
we think about a week has past since the moment of cataclysm
try to set it early enough to move the asteroid away
they're just about done with the tractor set, it's awaiting activation
now it's time to make the trip to travel back to the past
but I can't shake this feeling that we have forgotten something
the asteroid was not the only source of devastation
could it be that the black hole has erased some of our memories?
or is it just my sanity, am I losing it for sure?
traveling through space and time to stop the cataclysm
we'll be among our kind again, walk among the earth
soon it will all be over, it'll be just like a dream
we're going home where we belong, we're going back in time
what else could there have been, what could I be dreading?
as the time-ship moves, I question it, this overwhelming feeling
that the asteroid was not the only thing to be afraid of
we accelerate while everything seems to become brighter
seeing strange flashes of blinding light, so fast our stomachs are dropping
it feels like our souls are trying to escape from our bodies
transcending to a new realm where space and time are colliding
repeat pre-chorus & chorus
Dan solo/harmony
Vin solo
turn back the pages of time, take a step through the sands of time
we're knocked out as the time-ship nears it's final destination
we'll be back in normal space when we re-awaken
then it all comes flooding back as I enter into dreamstate
visions of the beast's rampage as he devours it all
the only thing that could kill the beast was the asteroid
but we're going back to re-direct it away from the earth
traveling through space and time to stop the cataclysm
we'll be among our kind again, walk among the earth
but as we enter dreamstate while in the passages of time
nightmares of the beast come flooding back to me
